I think most of us put Edmonton as the Location, because it would be like a Calgarian putting Mackenzie Towne as there location. Very few people outside of Calgary would know where that is. I have ammended my info, which will probably have to be ammended again to Edmonton NW if Smith and Plain have their way !! (the two city mayors)
Cheers, AL

Since you guys got me started, I'll finish it.
Arty, your location should be "Edmonton (St. Albert...". This way when people view the userlist, they look under Edmonton and see all the people from Edmonton and area, instead of having to look under a whole pile of cities like Leduc, St. Albert, Fort Saskatchewan, Sherwood Park, etc. This is because if people are searching by area, it will be in alphabetical order.

In theory you are correct, but I think 50, 000 Plus residents is enough to have it listed as a location. The folks from BC, list their towns, Are you saying they should all either pick Vancouver, Victoria or Kelowna?

Yes. Regardless of population, I expect when people search the userlist, they are interested in the number of people in that general area (I know I am). There is no St. Albert Reefing Club, therefore it makes more sense for anyone in the Edmonton area to list that they are from Edmonton first, and a more specific location second, than it does to have them scattered across the userlist. Likewise, in my opinion, anyone in the GTA should list Toronto as their location, not Newmarket or Scarborough or what-have-you, and likewise for Vancouverites. Once again, this is how I would do it, and it's really not a huge issue.

So Quinn,
Shouldn't you have Calgary(Lethbridge) ? Better yet, if you were still in Red Deer would you put Edmonton or Calgary? Let's see you talk your way out of this one without offending one of the cities  Cheers, Al This post is in fun. I personally don't care what people have for their location.
